Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Sentimos coin from the Philippines, minted in 1967, features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of its time. The obverse side of the coin showcases a stylized portrait of President Manuel L. Quezon, while the reverse side features a rendering of the famous Mayon Volcano, located in Albay, Bicol. This coin is particularly interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in the Philippines, as the country was transitioning from a colonial territory to an independent nation. Additionally, the Pattern 5 Sentimos coin was only minted for a brief period, making it a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
